Fun and entertainment Douai

When you enter this warm place, it is impossible to miss the scent of freshly roasted coffee and the staff is friendly. On the menu, more than a dozen varieties take you around the world from Brazil to Sumatra. Gourmets will not be outdone: cappuccino, latte macchiato, chocolate almond, chocolate speculoos, toppings... you can't go wrong! Tea lovers can rest assured that they will be able to find what they are looking for in the fifty or so teas and infusions on offer. Note that the café is also a shop.

The time is long gone when the large Place du Barlet vibrated to the cries of the animal merchants and the girls of joy. Today, it vibrates to the rhythm of the national stage of Douai. Formerly a municipal circus, then a cultural action centre, the Hippodrome is now a place where you can come and enjoy the best of contemporary creation (theatre, music, dance, circus). But the Hippodrome hides another exceptional place, the Cinéma Paul Desmarets, where you can see a variety of films.

A superb room in the region, able to compete with a Paris Bercy. 13 000 fans can come and applaud their idols in ideal conditions. The sound is warm and does not stop at all corners of this infrastructure. Many events animate the town of Douai: concerts, fairs, exhibitions, exhibitions, sporting events. Finally, some great names that took place at the Gayant Expo: Marilyn Manson, Indochina, Mylène Farmer, etc.

The must-see feature of this place is above all the large, absolutely unique bar imported directly from Ireland! A feature that immediately immerses you in the festive atmosphere of the pubs! But for the immersion to be complete, you also need beers worthy of the place. And here too, there's plenty to choose from, with a wide and varied range of craft beers! The atmosphere is not to be outdone, with concerts, events and other entertainment throughout the year. A place of life, festivity and good humor, not to be missed!
